Thomas Alnutt Brassey, 2nd Earl (1863-1919) was educated at Eton and Balliol College, Oxford. Brassey was an honorary Lieutenant in the London Brigade of Royal Naval Artillery Volunteers from 1888 to 1892.

He was a benefactor of the Bodleian Library.

"This is the day-by-day journal of a wealthy Englishman's hunting trip for elk in southern Wyoming in August and September of 1888. He seems to have been the kind of man who knew or had letters to the 'best people' and was important enough to be given a special train from Marquette to St. Paul. " - TWS
